Reese and the Sky made headlines during last Saturday’s road game against Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever. In the third quarter of that contest, Chennedy Carter delivered an unnecessary shoulder check to Clark after making a basket.

Angel Reese was seen celebrating on the sidelines immediately after the play. The WNBA reviewed the cheap shot and issued a flagrant foul to Carter, and Reese was fined $1,000 for not speaking to the media after the game.

Angel Reese & Sky Can Get Back To .500 On Saturday

The Sky haven’t found any consistency to begin the season, as they’re 4-5 entering tomorrow’s clash against the 4-4 Atlanta Dream.

Chicago has dropped four of six since their stellar 2-1 start, but the club can get back to. 500 if they defeat the Dream at home. This is the first of four regular season meetings between the two clubs.

After hosting the Dream on Saturday, the Sky will stay in the Windy City and wrap up their homestand with a Wednesday evening showdown against the league-best Connecticut Sun, who enter the weekend with a perfect 9-0 record.
